I think most everyone knows that we had a bit of a flood while we were in Florida. The drain in the stairwell outside of the basement didn't work and we got dumped on a bunch of water came in. And a few friends (worms). I meant to take a picture while we had the carpet pulled up but never did. So these were all taken after the carpet was back down.
The whole back section was wet so everything got moved to the front and some wonderful friends loaned us a big fan. We threw away the padding in the whole back section and dried everything else out. Once dry we put the carpet back down and are planning to replace it in the spring or early summer next year. Here is the problem Craig wants wood I want tile. I think if this happens again tile will hold up better he thinks tile is cheap and tacky. So right now we are at a bet of a stand off. Of course I guess next time he goes out of town I could just hire someone to come in and put down what I want anyway. haha just kidding. I did notice that maybe we can call in the ghost hunters we seem to have orbs isn't that what they say a ghost looks like on camera? Pretty cool we might have our own resident casper to bad he doesn't do housework.
This was what the front of the room looked like. Lucky for me Craig said he was going down to check on something one night and when I went down to check on him a little later he had everything cleaned up and back where it belonged. Maybe I will have to let him have hardwood after all:) Maybe that was his plan all along. hmmmm. I am just glad that he did clean it up cause to be honest I was not looking forward to it.
Now for my next project ...... trying to get the boys to clean their own bedrooms. I am seriously considering taking pictures to post in the hopes that they will want afters posted also. I read about it somewhere and wonder if it would work for my kids. I might be back later today we'll see I guess if I have to stoop to that level or not.
